Bitshares is official below Peercoin. What does that tell you?

That's why Brownies should recieve only a limited SHAREDROP. I made this point before and Stan brushed it off as usual. Nobody wants to listen here.

« on: November 02, 2015, 08:36:26 pm »I bet it was the news of the hardfork coming on Wednesday... shoot first ask questions later.
I think it was actually btc rallying really hard, which lead to panic among those who had margin longs, who started dumping and ended up wiping out the entirety of the buy support on polo, but support hit 21 btc at one point after literally everyone who was on margin got margin called at once.
How do you know "everyone" was wiped out who was on margin? Does polo publish the short ratio?
If this dump wiped out a bunch of long term hodlers... there is a very real chance it is "THE" bottom. Markets always go in the direction that causes the most pain... Down when there are lots of longs, and up after leaving bulls behind at the bottom.
So your saying now since the groups are mostly shorts, they are vulerable to the most pain.

If we got BTC38 online, this would sort itself out I'm sure.

That is the pain you feel when you support blindly something I suppose instead of day trading like most people..
The luck of support at these levels is just so disappointing..
oh noo. Why did you do that. Its a low liquidity environment. Prices are extremely volatile and are manipulated easily. Are community members should be holding, not exposing themselves to risk,

I thought Intrade was a very successful business until they got shut down. Remember that they were starting to gain traction and had been used on cnbc at times. Plus intrade charged a monthly subscription fee (which turned me off).

So atm people would prefer Bond or Prediction markets? I'm curious. What do you think would bring in more liquidity? I would go with bond markets. Augur already has all the media, etc, it would be a waste to build something and compete atm. Bond markets make more sense imo.
Its a good question. I'm thinking Bond markets are the harder of the two to deploy and has greater chance of failure than prediction markets. We haven't seen bond markets done in a decentralized manner. Although to do Votecoin/REP style PM's would be more difficult than bond markets.
So I'm not sure. A PM would bring many eyes towards Bitshares because of the countless questions being asked. Coupled with referral it could be quite viral.
Bond+PMs+ Referral = Next big thing.

How does casino gambling fit with our slogan "industrial-grade financial smart contract platform"?
Why don't we do Prediction Markets first and evaluate the need for casinos after. Its the next logical step. And least controversial.

« on: November 01, 2015, 11:35:21 pm »I think we need both gambling and prediction markets.
This is disappointing to hear. Clearly you need to think about Bitshares perceptions in China. Any kind of association with casino style gambling would bring disciplinary action from the government in China. This would kill Bitshares.
The minute the chinese community hears Bitshares is putting gambling into the blockchain, the chinese will start taking out their money in droves....
Prediction Markets offer value and will benefit society, unlike casino style gambling. Its less risky and provides a new financial category that would be bitshares to dominate. Why not advocate for something that is revolutionary (information markets) , rather than devolutionary (casinos)?

« on: November 01, 2015, 09:05:13 pm »So I think if BitShares is struggling to gain traction it should re-look at introducing gambling at the blockchain level.
No just implement Augur / Truthcoin.
